AEP T2 BLOG 3 - Summer Rose S. Valdez

 

            I can't believe it is already time for the third blog of the second term, and possibly the last blog of the year.  Time flies fast, doesn't it?  As hard and stressful trimester 2 was in other subjects,  AEP has felt the same.  It feels like a breath of fresh air, after long days filled with numbers and scientific terms.  Without further ado, let us end this year's last blog with a bang!


            November 28 - It's Okay To Lose

    Our lesson of AEP began with something we didn't expect - we lost at Quordle.  It was unexpected, for we have mastered the art of this game, or so we thought.  The words this time were quite difficult, leaving us perplexed until the game over screen.  Regardless of the outcome, it was a fun warmup.

    We then started studying the next vocabulary unit.  As per usual, everyone was assigned some words from the next vocab unit and had to learn their meanings.  The words I got assigned were "avail," and, "crony".   I found those words easy to understand, and am eager to take advantage of them in the future.  I also learned new things hearing my classmates answer questions of their own words, and found them very useful.


        The blog this time extremely short, as we only got to have one lesson of AEP that week.  But that doesn't mean you can't learn anything new, because I definitely did.  On top of that, we got humbled by a game we thought we had already conquered.  You truly never can be perfect, no matter how hard you try.  It may sound depressing, but it also means you will never reach your limit.  Never feel as if you have reached your peak, for you can always go beyond that.  I can't believe it's the last blog this year, so much has happened since the start of Grade 8.  There were many ups and downs (mostly downs), but in the end, it does not matter, for we are approaching a new year, a fresh start.  Life is nothing without the negative aspects, like rollercoasters are nothing without the thrilling drops.  The ups in life make the downs worth it.

IM THE MAP! - Janek - Blog 2 - T3 - AEP 10

Although maps have always held a peculiar charm for me, a fascination sparked during childhood by watching episodes of Dora the Explorer and her indispensable map, my relationship with them has evolved. Previously, a map was a guide to travelling to places, a tool for discovering new café locations on trips, or simply a way to marvel at rather weird corners of the globe. However, my recent academic assignments have altered my perception of maps, making them less of an object of intrigue and more a source of stress. Essays have made maps worse! Before, engaging with a map never entailed writing an essay. If my father discussed a historical map, I’d happily delve into a verbal explanation rather than penning an analysis. But now, as a student in an Advanced English Program, essays have become a standard expectation. Tackling these assignments has been a significant challenge, turning my once enjoyable encounters with maps into a draining task. It’s clear now that the essays, not my exhau...

Miss Disa is back! - AEP 10- BLOG#4- JANEK

Now that the exams have finally concluded and the stress has lifted, thanks to the break and the high AEP spirit, it seems inevitable that a blog post is in order! The past weeks have been some of the most unusual and unpredictable I've ever experienced in AEP. With a few new faces, Miss Disa's absence, and sudden activities, let's delve into the latest updates on AEP. A Sudden Disappearance? On January 7, just a day before AEP's classes resumed, I felt a sense of fear. Fear that I might have forgotten something, a feeling I often experience. Despite this, I had to enter the class with confidence. However, my expectations took an unexpected turn. Miss Disa was nowhere to be seen. She had apparently left for the UK, and has not yet arrived in the Philippines. This had left many of us  confused, yet simultaneously relieved. No work, no stress! All we had to do was sit in the Filipino class doing nothing. Initially, that's what we thought, until a notification popped u...

Nurin’s AEP Adventure (Term 3 #1)

Hey blog!!! Under some ciscumstances, I have relapsed into my old habits of procrascination and I’m really not proud of that :,) But that’s okay, I’m still in progress and of course I’m gonna have ups and downs. Embracing any chance to change myself for the better, always. Anyways, IT’S TERM 3 ALREADY?!?!? My my, time flies like a speed jet to space. I’m like a leap away from graduating and that thought scares me, in an exciting way. I cannot even imagine yet what the future holds for me and I’m eager to find out. For now, nothing much is going on except for preparations of the musical production on March 9th. So I’ve just been really busy with dance trainings and rehearsals here and there. Expectations are really high for the Grade 12 so we have to give it our best and perform to our fullest potential.  I have been putting off works in the last moments of previous term. I got my Cambridge exam result and it brought me back down to my dark pit, I never want to get out of there like...
